Your entries need to be submitted by the midnight of Central European Time in order to be considered for the challenge with a description of approximately 30 to 50 words. Only one picture to be submitted for a daily photo challenge. The rule number one is to use only personal images. Ten winning photos will receive an upvote from me from which I will pick one winner that will receive extended publicity in my post tomorrow morning. I will also visit his/her blog to upvote one of the most recent posts.

The winner of daily challenge then competes against winners from other continental challenges of the respective week to receive the price of 15 SBD. That will be decided by you based on the dollar value of upvotes of my winning post announcement. The winning weekly picture then automatically enters other rounds for the price of 150 SBD in total.

Please see the winner of Asian Sunday, Australian Monday, Tuesday of Antarctica and world's oceans, African Wednesday and European Thursday to give them your support if you like their image to be the one winning the weekly price and entering the other stages of the 7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge.

7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge – Asian Sunday – winner announcement!

@bypaul Asian Sunday entry:

This summer I traveled through southeast Asia for 7 weeks. Three of these weeks I was traveling Myanmar with my sister (to be seen in pic). To get to our next destination we had to take a boat with the locals and drive a whole day over Inle Lake. Eventhough it looks like a river we are actually racing over a huge lake covered by plants with only this small path open for the boats. The clouds you see in the back of the picture got us soaked about an hour later.

I took the photo of this African buffalo or Cape buffalo at Addo Elephant National Reserve in South Africa. It is clear why it is one of the 'Big Five'... the beast was looking right towards me.

Half Dome! Yosemite - the world famous National Park. I remember the awesome time we had and the images of Ansel Adams, who started in the 1920s as an amateur photographer. Too bad we went on Memorial Weekend and the place was packed. Have a good one everyone 😀☀️📷

What a beautiful picture and amazing place. Thank you for sharing. Stay tuned for the winner announcement.

Let's see if I can do well in America as well:

This picture shows the giant Grand Canyon, a true natural wonder. Words can not describe the incredible atmosphere you feel when standing on the border of this massive canyon. Pictures can not do a perfect job as well - but maybe this will at least give you some impression of it!

What a great picture, what a great place. Bring back the memories.... I did the helicopter flight which was probably one of the most amazing things ever! Stay tuned for the winner announcement. Tomas

Thanks a lot :) I have to go now, will reply in the other post later today! Greets my friend!

Great one buddy! Did you guys hike down or take a rafting tour?

Me and my dad did a long and exhausting hike :) But the best part was the helicopter flight we did! Rafting would have been nice as well, I am sure!

We "just" hiked but as you said it was quite exhausting. Actually we didn't go rafting but we talked to some guys and they said it' really fun.
When we visit NY some day I'll do a helicopter ride for sure:)

This is Skaha Lake in Penticton, British Columbia, Canada. Last weekend I and my family went for a nice walk at the beach. It was really nice and quiet, since summer is over. This lake is very popular in the summertime and it is filled up with tourists. This lake offers all kinds of water and sports activities like board rentals, sea-doos, boats, kayaks, swimming etc. The lake is also surrounded by a beautiful park where you can BBQ, play beach volleyball, basketball, kids parks, water park etc.

A cosy and beautiful port town Cabo San Lucas, Mexico.
Mexican music, tacos, singing in the street - I enjoyed that day there.

I love Cabo San Lucas, brings back some great memories. Thank you for sharing and stay tuned for the winner announcement.

I would have definitely made your picture a winning one but you are lacking the description just way too much which is a shame.... Like it says in the guidelines it should be between 30 to 50 characters. I hope to see more from you!

The view through the trees looking out over Banff - one of the most beautiful places I've ever been!

Thank you for your submission. What a great entry. The winner announcement will be coming soon.

Not far from the famous Monument Valley in Utah on the Navajo Reservation is Canyon de Chelley (pronounced Shey). There is a rich history in this canyon, some good some not so good. This is the White House Ruin, an ancient settlement in the canyon.
